※Above data of “Accuracy” and “Sampling rate” exclude the error of temperature probes.
※The specification of TK-60 series will be subject to change without notice.
VI. Operation Instructions:
A. Power Switch: Press the button turn the thermometer On or Off.
B. Manual Power off ( + ):
Keep the key pressed and press the key turn on the meter, the meter will change to manual power off, the “ M ” indication appears
on the display, denote the meter is manual power off mode.
C. Auto power off:
Press turn on the meter, it is under auto power off mode. The meter automatically turns itself off after about 7 minutes if no key is operated.
D. Data Hold Function:
The measured values can be held in the display by pressing the key, and a symbol HOLD will appear in the display. Operator may
press button again to exit the HOLD mode.
E. MAX/MIN Value Operations:
Press button, the meter will enter the memory function, the MAX symbol is on the display and the maximum value is shown on the display.
Press again, the MIN symbol is on the display, and show the minimum value on the display.
※Operator may press to circulate the display mode both options.
F. Low battery condition:
When the battery voltage is under proper operation requirement, the symbol “ “ will show on the LCD and the battery needs to be
replaced with new one.
G. ℃/℉Switch:
Keep the key pressed and press the key turn on the meter, the meter will change to ℃/℉, the “℃/℉” indication appears
on the display.
Precaution:
If operator would like to circumscribed power for long time measure record, please use the AC Adaptor. (This is chosen products, please contact
original company sales department).
Offset calibration screws offers temperature reparation or specialties calibration needed. Unless specialist please doesn’t random adjust.
When meter show the “ “, please check the thermocouple if well or not. Or your measure range is out of this meter that can accept the
measure temperature.
Please don’t put the meter in high temperature, humid or shaky place.
If have any problem of using; please don’t repair or instead mounting by yourself.
Warranty: Within one year from the date of original purchase.

RS-232 Transmission Functions
The RS-232 transmission port of TX-60 series is single side data transmission, it functions with 3 signal composed grounding wires to receive
and input. We suggest that you choose the original transmission cable or shorter than 10 meters cable to connect PC and instrument.
